Part of the family of I/O expansion
modules for the PICOSERV miniature web server system, the
Analogue I/O Expansion Module provides a simple means of
interfacing 4 Analogue inputs, 4 digital outputs, 4 digital
inputs and an ambient temperature sensor to the web server or
SMS modules. Real world input or output signals connected to the
expansion module are easily displayed or changed in any web
browser using only simple HTML commands.
The analogue I/O module stacks directly onto
the PICOSERV server module to provide a ‘no development’ route
to providing four analogue input signals, four logic level
digital inputs, four logic level digital outputs and an on-board
ambient temperature sensor. Additionally all inputs can be
assigned to a time qualified, adjustable threshold alarm status.
Up to eight analogue I/O modules can be configured in one
system, providing up to 32 analogue inputs.
Analogue Inputs
Four analogue input ports which can be software (browser)
configured to operate in one of three different modes.
Mode1 -
0-4V input with a 4mV resolution. Mode2 -
0-2V input with a 2mV resolution. Mode3 -
Temperature Measurement input with a 0.2oC resolution
when using a 10mV/oC sensor. Mode4 -
Temperature measurement input for PT100 sensors. 0.5oC
resolution -100oC to +300oC
All analogue inputs have a programmable offset of +/- 9.999V or
+/-999.9oC, depending on the input mode selected.
I/O Modules Simply Stack Onto The Server
Module
Digital Outputs
Four logic level output signals, capable of sinking or sourcing
25mA per output.
Digital Inputs
Four logic level digital inputs protected to +/- 30VDC
Alarm Status
All input ports have a programmable alarm status with optional
time qualification from 1 to 9999 seconds. Analogue ports have
separate high and low alarm thresholds programmable between
+9.999V and 9.999V or +999.9oC and -999.9oC,
depending on the input mode selected.
